MRS. BREsEE PARDoNED. - Great
credit is due Gov. Ryland for the
promptness with which he has acted In
matter that has been too long neg
lected. The circumstances under which
Mrs. Theresa Bresee was sentenced to
the state penitentary at Waupon are al
ready well known. She was sentenced on
the 18th of last December. Shortly
after this time Mrs. Diven, half-sis-
ter of Mrs. Bresee who lives at Sioux
City, Ia, came to Platteville and Lam
caster and started a petition for her
pardon. Rev. S. ID. Pulford of this
place, who knew the circumstance and
the history of the case, took an active
interest in her behalf, and went person
to Madison on March 80, presented the
petition and made formal application
for her pardon. He also saw the govern
or personally and interceded in her be-
half. Whether the matter had been
considered or not, nothing
had been done until recently. Upon
assuming the duties of the guberna-
torial Office in the absence of Gov. Rusk
last week, Lieut.. Coy. Ryland examined
the papers, and promptly issued the
pardon. Mrs. Bresee returned to Lam
caster last Saturday evening and on
Monday Mr.. Pulford accompanied her
as far as Woodman where he pur.
chased her ticket for Sioux City. She
will have home with Mrs. Diven.

and the habitual drunkard, but in vain.
They, too have been deaf to the voice of
justice and humanity, and have laughed
us to scorn. We have exhausted all our
resources in our endeavors to obtain re-
lief from those engaged in the traffic in
distilled and fermented liquors, and have
utterly failed. The only course left us
to pursue, is to Dissolve completely our
connection with so unjust, so tyrannical,
so oppressive power.
We, therefore, appealing tot the Supreme
Judge of the Universe for the rectitude
of our intentions. do solemnly publish
and declare that the people of this land
are, and of right ought to be. free and
independent; that we are absolved from
all allegiance to King Alcohol, and to all
his adherents; that, as free and indie
pendent citizens of these United States,
we have the right to break away from
his control, and to Danish the tyrant
from our land.
And for the support of this declara-
ton, and the accomplishment of our
arduous undertaking, we earnestly in.
woke the aid and sympathy of the
civilized world, the fervent prayers of
all Christian people, and the help and
guidance of Almighty God. And we
mutually pledge to each other our lives,
our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

TEACHERS INSTITUTE will be
seen by the notice of the county super
intendent, teachers institute continu.
ing two weeks will be held in this city,
commencing Monday, August 8. The
value of these educational gatherings,
especially to those who are new in the
work, can not be over estimated.
While thorough review of the COM
mon school studies will certainly be of
much value, probably the most profita-
BILE feature will be the professional in
struction, or instruction in methods.
From the high educational standing of
the conductors of this institute it must
naturally follow that the character of
the work done will be exceptionally
good. As the state furnishes this in
struction free, teachers and those ex-
pecting to teach should realize that this
is an opportunity to get for a trifing
expense, training that will do much to
fit them for their duties, and that
through them the state will derive bene-
fit in The better teaching that will re-
suit from their work here.

ONE YEAR AT WAUpUN.-William
Edwards who burglarized the North
western depot at this place ON the 10th
of July, came before Judge Carter to-
day (the 27th) and pleaded guilty to the
charge of burglary. His sentence was
one year in the penitentiary and one
days solitary confinement. Edwards
stated that he was a native of Della
ware county, Penn, and had been West
about four years. He had about 5000
which he had inherited, when he got to
Chicago. After spending most of his
money he drifted up to Minnesota where
he worked in the woods and on the
river rafting. He will be twenty years
old the fifth of next October. He was
in the habit of going out harvesting a
few weeks each year. The past season
had been hard one on the river. His
work at Beef Slough gave out and he
went to La Crosse. From there he
came down to Potosi and started up this
way. He had been out of money two
days and had had little to eat. He was
hungry. The window at the depot was
open enough to admit him easily. If
he had had dollar he would not have
broken in. This was his first criminal
charge. he told his story in straight
forward way, and it may be true. But
he did not attempt to justify his lar
ceny, and expressed himself afterwards
as satisfied with the sentence. There
is one fact that he did not state which
is true nevertheless-the cause of his
downfall is whiskey.

NOT PLEASANT TO TAKE,


1t lie recorded in the apocslyptic vision
Of st. John, the divine, that on GER
tain occasion he was given a hook by
the messenger, or angel. who was his at
tendant and teacher at times. This
book John proceeded to eat, aud con-
corning 1t, he says: "And it was in my
mouth IS sweet a. honey; and us soon AZ
had eaten it my belly was bitter"
This appears TO have been very largely
the case with the democratic party Of
Georgia in ealing up the republican
party, as they are rrputed to have done
on good democratic authority. The ST.
Louis Republican, a genuine Bourbon
organ, with double crank, and
patent, duplex, back action. double
gea-ed free trade attachment, il laying
down the law and the gospel of anti.
protection to the southern protective
tariff democrats. The Republican Is I'M
fortunate in its CIassiticatiOns. II form
erly rated al war democrats as rtpubI-
cans. 1t now rates al protection demo
Gratis as republicans, and under this i'm.
preston, and not liking the outlook in
Georgia, writes as follows, being dlrect-
ly instigated thereto by the invitation
extended TO JEFF Davis to visit Macon:
"The white republicans of Georgia are
no longer u party. As has been ire
quently explained, the democratic parly
n the Gfgfa aHullnus.H rt,..yp met a., L..
puppy did the hornet, and with Just the
same results. The leading newspaper
at Macon is q protection organ, advO-
eating the Blair dill and all the pIinCi-
pies of the republican party. IL is the
strongest opponent of the Drrsp ad-
miniStratiOn 10 the south. Under ills in
fluenCe the sentiment it Representa- IL
playing Jefferson Davis at Macon
against President Cleveland AT Atlanta,
RepubliCanism in Georgia is not in
sight, but il is active ard vigorous In
tIs retirement. iU Is becoming more
and more evident INST 1t was an evil
day for Georgia democracy when II
swallowed the republican party, and
the hope for ii lies only Ia the fact that
the dose will finally act a. an emetlc."
The Republican will find little COM
fort 10 the situation, if this be its mind.
Not only the Macon Telegraph, but the
Atlanta Constitution, the Memphis
Avalanche and the New Orleans Times
Democrat are strong protection journals,
and their lead ia followed by a score OF
democratic journals Of less calibre all
over the south, outside of Texas. Let
the attempt be successfully made to
eliminate the protection democracy Of
the southern states from the southern
wing Of the democratic party and there
will not be any democratic party left.
The democratic party of Georgia may or
may not have swallowed the republican
party, but there is no question that they
have swallowed republican tariff and
protection principles and viii stand or
fall by them no matter how bitter 1t
may make the belly of the great democ-
Tacy.
